Hi Bella! I already know you're going to love reading these letters, although you really shouldn't be so shy and self-conscious. We love you! I'm excited to have you as my sister. Trust me; you're going to appreciate having me as a sister when I take you shopping. It's way past time for you to have your own credit cards. I really have no idea how you survived eighteen years without a Visa! I mean, really. What kind of parents are Charlie and Renee?!?

I feel terrible about the way you had to be changed. I almost consider myself lucky that I have no memory of my change. You deserved better than that. But, what's done is done, and we might as well enjoy the results! You're practically immortal, you can kick Rosie's butt, and—best of all—you're rich enough to shop anywhere you want to! Trust me. A decade with me will have you hooked on Prada.

You're awesome. Your fashion sense leaves quite a bit to be desired, but Jasper's right. I should look at you like a blank canvas, waiting for me to splash some color across. You're a block of clay, waiting for my capable hands to mold you into something wonderful. I do wish your husband would get out of my head though…he's annoying me! I think I'll punish him by picturing some of the naughtier outfits we can buy for you. You don't mind, do you? No, I didn't think so. I can already see you laughing! Oh, isn't this fun!!!

This is quite possibly the most splendid thing to happen to our family since I came along!

I'm getting myself all worked up, and besides, I've already seen how happy you are. I am so done writing now. Carlisle can just kiss my American Express if he thinks he can keep me from eBay a moment longer!

Kisses,

Alice Cullen Whitlock (Jasper asked me to marry him again!)
